All routes
Every service the two operators publish, grouped by which way it leaves Rhodes Town. 48 of them, from a bus every twenty minutes to a bus every Monday. 10 have a full route page so far; the rest are listed because they are reachable, not because we have written them up yet.
East coast
The busy side, and almost all of it KTEL Rodou. Everything from Rhodes Town down past Faliraki and Lindos to the southern tip, on the corridor most visitors use.
| Destination | Operator | Fare | Departures a day | Last back |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lindos Λίνδος | KTEL Rodou | €6.00 | 19 out / 19 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Faliraki Φαληράκι | KTEL Rodou | €2.50 | 23 out / 19 back | Withdrawn 1–15 October 2026 (edition of 30 September) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| RODA’s line 40 also reaches Faliraki, more often and from a different stand. This row is the KTEL coastal service only. | ||||
| Tsambika Beach Τσαμπίκα Παραλία | KTEL Rodou | €4.00 | 5 out / 2 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Only two buses back from the beach a day: miss the second and there is no later one. This is the beach stop, not the crossroad on the main road above it: they are different stops, and KTEL Rodou’s master timetable for 1–18 October 2026 lists no crossroad stop at all. | ||||
| Tsambika crossroad Τσαμπίκα | KTEL Rodou | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| KTEL Rodou’s edition for 1–15 October 2026 publishes no board for this stop, so we print no fare or times for it: the summer board we used ended on 10 September. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable before you plan a return from here, and do not plan on an evening bus that no current board shows. The stop is up on the main road, not at the beach — a walk down, and a longer one back up. KTEL do not publish the distance, so we do not state one: the figure quoted around the internet traces to a design placeholder rather than to any operator document. | ||||
| Kolymbia Beach Κολύμπια Παραλία | KTEL Rodou | €4.00 | 15 out / 14 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Kolymbia crossroad Κολύμπια | KTEL Rodou | €2.80 | 15 out / 18 back | Not published 4 May – 15 June 2026 (expired) |
| The newest board KTEL have published for this stop expired on 15 June 2026, and neither their boards for 1–15 October 2026 nor their master timetable of 16 October lists it, so we no longer print its times. The fare and the counts are from that expired board. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable before you plan a journey from here. | ||||
| Archangelos Αρχάγγελος | KTEL Rodou | €3.50 | 13 out / 16 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Afantou Αφάντου | KTEL Rodou | €2.50 | 12 out / 16 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Kiotari Κιοτάρι | KTEL Rodou | €7.50 | 14 out / 15 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |

| Prasonisi Πρασονήσι | KTEL Rodou | €11.00 | 2 out / 2 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Two buses each way on KTEL Rodou’s master timetable for 1–18 October 2026: miss the second bus back and there is no later one. | ||||
| Seven Springs Επτά Πηγές | KTEL Rodou | €4.00 | 1 out / 1 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| One bus each way on KTEL Rodou’s master timetable for 1–18 October 2026: miss the bus back and there is no later one. | ||||
| Kalathos Καλαθός | KTEL Rodou | €5.40 | 19 out / 19 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Lardos Λάρδος | KTEL Rodou | €6.20 | 10 out / 6 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| This is the ΛΑΡΔΟΣ row of KTEL Rodou’s master timetable. Their per-stop boards for 1–15 October 2026 had a separate board for Lardos Bay, a stop they also call ΛΑΡΔΟΣ, with different times; KTEL do not say which stop is which, so the two are not merged here. Ask at the stand which one you are standing at. | ||||
| Haraki Χαράκι | KTEL Rodou | €4.90 | 2 out / 2 back | 15:45Withdrawn 4 May – 31 October 2026 This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Two buses each way. Haraki ↔ Lindos is priced separately at €2.80. | ||||
| Stegna Στεγνά | KTEL Rodou | €4.40 | 1 out / 1 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| One bus each way, neither of them on a Sunday, and the single return leaves in the morning, before the single outbound: not a same-day trip. | ||||
| Ladiko / Anthony Quinn Bay Λαδικό | KTEL Rodou | €2.50 | 5 out / 4 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| KTEL Rodou’s master timetable for 1–18 October 2026 lists this stop as Ladiko – Anthony Quinn: five buses out and four back. | ||||
| Mantomata Μαντωμάτα | KTEL Rodou | €2.50 | 11 out / 11 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Oasis / Lippia / Iris | KTEL Rodou | €2.50 | 22 out / 16 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| The Faliraki hotel strip, not the village centre. | ||||
| Plimmiri Πλημμύρι | KTEL Rodou | €8.60 | 3 out / 4 back | Withdrawn 1–15 October 2026 (edition of 30 September) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Malona Μάλωνα | KTEL Rodou | €4.10 | 4 out / 5 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Morning and early afternoon only. | ||||
| Massari Μασσάρι | KTEL Rodou | €4.30 | 4 out / 5 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Morning and early afternoon only. | ||||
| Kalithies Καλυθιές | KTEL Rodou | €2.50 | 8 out / 9 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| Not Kallithea — Kalithies is the inland village, Kallithea is the spa on the coast, and confusing them puts you on the wrong bus. Two of the eight buses out do not run on Sundays. | ||||
| Psinthos Ψίνθος | KTEL Rodou | €2.80 | 1 out / 2 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| One bus out, and of the two buses back the morning one does not run at weekends. | ||||
| Laerma Λαέρμα | KTEL Rodou | €7.10 | 1 out / 1 back | Withdrawn 1–18 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| A service for residents, not a day trip: one bus each way, weekdays only, with the single return early in the morning. | ||||
| Kallithea Springs Πηγές Καλλιθέας | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Both operators pass Kallithea — RODA’s line 40 runs Rhodes – Kallithea Avenue – Faliraki, and KTEL sell onward journeys from Kallithea Avenue — but neither publishes a Rhodes ↔ Kallithea fare in any 2026 document, and neither prints a timetable for Kallithea as a destination in its own right. Use the line 40 times below. | ||||
West coast
The airport side, and Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ territory. Frequent as far as Kremasti and the airport, then thinning fast: several of the mountain villages have one bus a day, and two of them run only on Mondays. The return departure is what decides the trip out here.
| Destination | Operator | Fare | Departures a day | Last back |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rhodes Airport ⇄ Faliraki (line 25) | KTEL Rodou | €3.50 | 16 out / 16 back | 23:30Withdrawn 1–31 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| The direct airport link, and the one KTEL service that never calls at Rhodes Town. “Out” here is Faliraki → Airport; “back” is Airport → Faliraki, whose last departure is 23:30. For Rhodes Town to the airport you want RODA instead. KTEL prints this line on its master timetable, for 1–31 October 2026. | ||||
| Ixia & Ialysos Ιξιά / Ιαλυσός | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 59 out / 49 back | 00:55 |
| The busiest corridor RODA run, and one of only two that go on past midnight. | ||||
| Kremasti Κρεμαστή | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 59 out | 00:50 |
| Shares its outbound clock times with the Ixia and Ialysos corridor on the same sheet. | ||||
| Rhodes Airport (Diagoras) Αεροδρόμιο Διαγόρας | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 45 out / 39 back | 00:45 |
| This is the airport bus, and it is RODA’s, not KTEL’s — KTEL’s own stop map has no airport stop on it at all. It leaves from the West Coast Central Station. Buses run from 05:15 until midnight out and until 00:45 back, seven days a week; the Saturday and Sunday sheets differ in detail from the weekday figures shown here. | ||||
| Paradisi Παραδείσι | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 19 out | 00:20 |
| Pastida & Maritsa Παστίδα / Μαριτσά | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 8 out | 21:50 |
| Eight departures on the weekday sheet, six on Saturday and four on Sunday. | ||||
| Damatria Δαματριά | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 2 out / 1 back | 07:40 |
| Morning return only — nothing back after 07:40. Two buses out, one back, weekdays only; the corridor does not appear on the Saturday or Sunday sheets at all, and the single return leaves before either outbound run. | ||||
| Theologos (Tholos) Θεολόγος | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 13 out / 13 back | 00:15 |
| Soroni Σορωνή | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 9 out / 9 back | 23:00 |
| Fanes Φάνες | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 7 out / 7 back | 23:00 |
| Seven departures are printed on the weekday sheet. Sunday drops to four. | ||||
| Kalavarda Καλαβάρδα | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 7 out / 7 back | 23:00 |
| Sunday drops to four departures. | ||||
| Salakos Σάλακος | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 2 out / 2 back | 16:00 |
| Weekdays only — Salakos does not appear on the Saturday or Sunday sheets. Two buses each way, and the last one back leaves at 16:00. | ||||
| Apollona, Dimylia, Eleousa & Platania Απόλλωνα / Διμυλιά / Ελεούσα / Πλατάνια | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 1 out / 1 back | 07:30 |
| Morning return only — nothing back after 07:30. One bus a day each way, weekdays only, and the return leaves six hours before the outbound. You cannot go and come back the same day on this service. | ||||
| Empona (Embonas) Έμπωνα | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 1 out / 1 back | 07:00 |
| Morning return only — nothing back after 07:00, or 07:30 on Mondays, when a second return runs. One bus out a day, weekdays only, absent from the Saturday and Sunday sheets, and every return leaves long before the 13:30 outbound arrives. | ||||
| Mandriko, Kritinia & Kamiros Skala Μανδρικό / Κρητηνία / Κάμειρος Σκάλα | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 1 out / 1 back | 07:25 |
| Kamiros Skala is the harbour, not the archaeological site — Ancient Kamiros is a different place several kilometres away. Morning return only: nothing back after 07:25, or 08:00 on Mondays, when a second return marked ΜΟΝΟ ΚΑΘΕ ΔΕΥΤΕΡΑ (“only every Monday”) runs. One bus out a day, weekdays only. | ||||
| Monolithos, Siana & Agios Isidoros Μονόλιθος / Σιάννα / Άγ. Ισίδωρος | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 1 out / 1 back | 06:40 |
| Mondays only, in both directions, and a morning return only — nothing back after 06:40, which is seven hours before the bus out. The corridor is absent from the Saturday and Sunday sheets entirely. | ||||
| Butterfly Valley (Petaloudes) Κοιλάδα Πεταλούδων | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 3 out / 3 back | 15:45 |
| Three buses each way, at the same times every day of the week, and the last one back leaves at 15:45. The August 2026 sheets carry no validity window, and whether the service runs between October and April is not established by any document we have. | ||||
| Ancient Kamiros Αρχαία Κάμειρος | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| The one corridor where we can tell you less than we would like. RODA’s last published fare table priced Ancient Kamiros, but no current timetable sheet lists it as a destination — the nearby service that does run is to Kamiros Skala, the harbour, which is not the same place. Whether the archaeological site is served by bus at all in 2026 is unverified. Ask at the West Coast Central Station before you commit a day to it. | ||||
City network
Rhodes Town itself, plus the one line that runs east to Kallithea and Faliraki. Published by the Municipality of Rhodes rather than on an operator site of its own.
| Destination | Operator | Fare | Departures a day | Last back |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| City line 3 — 7ης Μαρτίου ⇄ Mandraki Γραμμή Πόλης 3 | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 15 out | Not published |
| A 60-minute loop rather than an out-and-back, which is why there is no return column: it ends where it starts. The 06:30 run diverts to the hospital every day of the week, and the departures marked ΚΟΣΚΙΝΟΥ extend to Koskinou, returning at 09:00, 14:00 and 20:55 on weekdays. Saturday runs twelve departures, Sunday eight. | ||||
| City line 6 — 7ης Μαρτίου ⇄ hospital ⇄ Mandraki Γραμμή Πόλης 6 | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 17 out | Not published |
| The hospital loop, also 60 minutes. The operator’s own PDF prints 06:30 above 05:30 in the weekday column, so read it as a set of departures rather than an ordered list — the earliest one printed is 05:30. Saturday runs fifteen departures, Sunday eight. | ||||
| Line 40 — Kallithea Avenue & Faliraki Γραμμή 40 | Δ.Ε.Σ. ΡΟΔΑ | Not published | 49 out / 49 back | 00:10Withdrawn 16–31 October 2026 (edition of 16 October) This edition has ended and its times are withdrawn. Check KTEL Rodou’s timetable. |
| The one frequent bus on the island: forty-nine departures each way, seven days a week, roughly every twenty minutes from 06:30 until 23:30 on KTEL’s sheet for 16–31 October 2026, which heads the earlier column in each direction with KTEL Rodou’s logo and the later one with RODA’s. The Municipality’s own sheet for this line is undated and still shows the denser summer pattern, and the 2025 edition ran Monday to Friday from 16:00 only — so treat any pattern as seasonal, not permanent. We follow the Municipality in listing it as a RODA service. | ||||
Why there is no journey time and no frequency
Those two columns used to be here and both were entirely dashes, so we took them out. Neither operator publishes a journey duration for any corridor on Rhodes — not one, in the whole archive of timetables behind this page, and a search across every KTEL PDF for the word for "minutes" returns nothing. The only published run time on the island is the 60 minutes printed on the city-lines sheet for the two Rhodes Town loops.
Nor does either operator publish a frequency. They publish a list of clock times, which is a different and more useful thing. So the column here counts that list: "21 out / 20 back" means the timetable prints twenty-one departures from Rhodes Town and twenty back. Where the intervals happen to be regular — line 40 is every twenty minutes from eight in the morning — that is our reading of the list rather than something the operator wrote down, so we do not print it as a figure. A dash, or a "not published", means the operator does not publish it. It never means the service does not exist.
